IPhone 3G stuck on apple screen

My iPhone 3G has been stuck on the screen that has the lit up apple for 2 days now. Now my computer or iTunes will not recognize the phone and I'm unable to use it.
This happened 2 days after I updated to the latest OS. I didn't reboot my phone (pressing both keys at the same time) until 2 days later when the phone started to freeze while updating the apps in the app store. When the phone went to the apple screen it never fully loaded and hasnt sincce... Any ideas?

Recovery mode
1. Disable all firewall and antivirus/spyware apps running on your PC
2. Start iTunes. Be sure you have the latest version 9.1.1 (11)
3. Connect phone to a USB port on the computer, not an external hub or keyboard port.
4. Press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo reappears, then continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes sees the phone in recovery mode.
5. Follow the prompts to restore.
Note that if your iPhone was jailbroken or hacked in any way (i.e. illegally unlocked), updating and this method may not work and may leave the phone permanently bricked.

Iphone 6 stuck on Apple screen can't turn it off

my iPhone 6 randomly shuts off and restarts. Now it is stuck on the Apple screen and won't turn off or move. It is 6 days old.

Hello, Jaimemomma.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your iPhone displays a constant Apple logo. Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it

Iphone 5 stuck at apple screen with loading bar

New iphone has been stuck for about 4 hours at the apple screen with the loading bar. Help please.

Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.

IPhone 4 stuck on Apple screen...Help!!!

My phone is stuck on the apple screen. It has been restarting at least 6 times a day since about two weeks after I got it. I have done at least 5 factory resets, 3 of which I did not restore the content on my phone and it still has issues. I took it the Genius bar and they couldn't fix it, told me I was stuck with it for a few days until they got a new one in for me. I didn't think that was a big deal since I could still use it, just had to make really quick calls or texts. Now it is stuck on the apple screen, and won't completely restart. Have tried holding the sleep/wake button and home button, but it won't completely reset. I have tried getting it to let me do a restore...It won't work. Any other suggestions? I really hate being without a phone for a couple days. And this phone is making me miss my DRIOD!!!!!!

I went to the apple store today, because it completely shut down on me for the second time (screen went completely black, couldn't restart it nothing worked, it lasted 8 hours and my battery finally died so it let me restart it so it could charge) and Verizon was not helpful at all. The guy at Apple had no clue what was wrong with me phone, so he ordered me a new phone, but it won't be in for a couple days. Apparently they were out of stock at the store. I did try that and still just the apple screen. I guess I will wait for my battery to dies and just recharge it and do a reset on it again. Thats about the only thing I can think of.

IPhone 3G stuck at "Apple screen of death"

Hey Forum!
The other day I dropped my iPhone 3G from say just above a meter into the floor. The iPhone went completely black and I couldn't start it anymore. When all my hope was lost I tried to plug it into the charger, and the little white apple on the black screen appeared. I thought that the problem was solved and everything, but there was one catch... the phone never went to the actual "phone-up-and-running" step. So, I've tried a couple of things, restoring it and putting it in DFU mode, but with no further success. One thing on the other hand is that I manage to get the connect to iTunes sign on the phone, but I'm not sure that helps. Worth noticing is that when i unplug the iPhone from the charger it goes black again.
So if anyone have any idea how i should proceed I would be overwhelmed with happiness
Thanks,
Axel

Hello Lawrence! I have already tried what you suggested and I got iTunes to recognize the phone. The restoration process could start, but right after the update software was extracted I got the "Error 23" (iTunes could not update the phone).
I have a hard time seeing that the problem isn't solvable, when it both starts and manages to be recognized by my computer. So if someone knows any alternative solution please help me.

iPod 4th gen stuck on apple screen after I tried updating to IOS 6. It won't turn off or reset even after updating iTunes to latest version. My iPod doesn't show up when I connect to iTunes. HELP PLEASE!

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPhone 3GS Stuck At Apple Logo.

I have an iPhone 3Gs that is stuck on the apple logo screen. Tried doing all kinds of restores and putting it into DFU mode but iTunes wont recognize it and will not even boot up. Just simply stuck at the apple logo screen until the phone dies. Any ideas?

If none of those work, use all of these:

Hello, I have an iPhone 4s, I noticed that when I am on a call (Phone) and I am done and I go to hang up, the iPhone is stuck on the screen and can not get new calls or call to a new call

Is there a case on the iphone?
If so, then remove it and see if that solves it.
Otherwise, make an appointment at the genius bar.

Hello Usmanoo7,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

You may need to perform a recovery-mode restore if the device displays the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar for over ten minutes.
Best of luck,
Mario

The disk utility program has found an error and cannot repair it - Disk Utility is not able to repair the drive it has been booted from. You'll need to restart the computer using another disk - this is one reason why I always travel with an emergency DVD and a bootable external drive. Invalid node structure errors are non-trivial; sometimes Disk Utility will repair them and sometimes not. Disk Warrior has been my second line of defence for disk drive problems for years.
